Retro my ass: Ritchey presents the redesigned P-29er
With its pedigree firmly rooted in the decades-long tradition of its P-series predecessors, this version of the P-29 is a very modern machine with features demanded by today's XC riders. It features Boost axle spacing, an unobtrusive dropper post guide and an ultra-lightweight forged tapered head tube. It fits tires up to 2.3 inches and is equipped with a fork with 100 millimeters of suspension travel. If you prefer to rediscover old trails, the frame can also be fitted with a 500 millimeter rigid fork with axle crown. Or you can combine it with a super-compact racing handlebar to venture even further afield, even into the urban landscape. All this together makes the P-29 a monument to the spirit of endless singletrack adventures.
The frame of the P-29 is made from Ritchey's own triple-butted Logic steel tube. In combination with the practical XC geometry, the P-29 offers a breathtakingly balanced ride, a wonderful blend of snappy and responsive nature and comfortable and predictable character.
Tom Ritchey is known for pushing every bike project to the limit and then even further in the redesign phase. The latest P-29 is a perfect example of his undeniable design style and penchant for coming up with new ideas to make something great even better.
